Mother-ease

So now that I've decided to go with the cloth diapers, I have no idea which style to go with, what 'accessories' I'll need and how many to get. If any of you ladies are familiar with Motherease maybe you could help me out. Or if you're not maybe you would be kind enough to check out their website to help me wade through all the options. I am completely clueless when it comes to cloth so please don't use any acronyms, I'll be lost! :) Thanks!

Awesome! Thanks for all the local info :) I'm def going to buy some of the ones you mentioned that are trimmer, that's one thing I was worrying about with jeans. I'm still going to go with motherease for the majority of diapers just coz the deal I'm going to get is amazing! Thanks again! BTW I love the name Tiernan!

Mother-ease makes up the bulk of my cloth diapers and I'm a huge fan of them. I have a couple bamboo Sandy's, 7 Stay-Dry One Size and a couple bamboo One Size. Plus, I have one of their diaper covers (the Air Flow Snap Cover).

Both the One Size and the Sandy's are easy to put on and I like the snaps and not worrying about the velcro getting clogged with stuff. I'd suggest getting one of each style to see what you prefer.

As for the type of cloth diaper, it's really up to you. Bamboo takes a long time to dry, but is really soft and absorbant and I'm a huge fan of their Stay Dry and with a Stay Dry liner (great for overnights). I haven't tried their other styles of diapers (like the cotton), so I can't weigh in.

Any particular questions I can help with? They have an introductory offer that you might find helpful - get a chance to try it.

Hi! I used mother-ease sandys to diaper my twins. They were born 13 weeks premature so i was just too busy to cloth till they were about 9 months. that said, we didnt achieve having them completely toilet taught till they were 3.5! ugh....the Sandys held up the entire time!!! I had 3 dozen and used them exclusively. I only bought the large ones since they were 9mos old, and med and eventually a few large wraps. I liked both the rikki and the air flow equally. we rarelt if ever had leaks, and if i did it was my error- wicking from a part of diaper sticking out of wrap. The BEST part- after using them for years, i was still able to ebay them for almost $9 a piece!!!!!! it was crazy how much $$ i saved using cloth!!!!Good luckjen

Hi, I overheard that you live in St. Catharines, Ontario. I do too. I'm friends with Amy (AC1OZ). I have a boy named Tiernan who is almost 1 year old and we have been cloth diapering since he was 10 lbs. I mostly lurk on these boards but, I may be able to help in your particular case.

I have looked into Mother Ease diapers as well as the other alternatives around the area. I myself use Kushies, Thirsties and Fuzzi Bunz. I stick with the All in One type diapers because my baby is a huge squirmer and it's a pain to even get one layer on him let alone a diaper and a cover. Something to think about right there.

In this area there is a fairly recent cloth diaper service where they give you the diapers for a week, you use them and they come pick them up eash them etc. and give you back clean diapers. It is approximately the same cost as using disposable diapers without the hassle of washing and sending trash to a dump.

The Kushies outlet store in Stoney Creek has "seconds", basically, misprints etc. no problems with the actual construction of the diaper. They are incredibly afforadable. The 10-22lb size all in one diapers I believe were around $6-7. These are the bulk of my diaper stash. They are great for everyday circumstances. I usually have to change Tiernan every 2-2 1/2 hours in them and if he has a nap I usually add an extra liner (which they sell too). They also have rice paper liners for diapers which I highly reccomend for those poopy diapers. It makes cleaning them much easier and you get less staining.

There is a absolutley fabulous Baby Boutique in Welland called Peekaboo Bottoms. The owner of the store is very helpful. They also do a trial week for about $30. They give you a bunch of different diapers and you see what works and what doesn't. I have the Thirsties ($20)and Fuzzi Bunz ($25). I have these for overnight diapers and also for going out. They are much trimmer then alot of the other cloth diapers and won't make your baby have a huge butt in jeans. When Tiernan starts daycare these are the diapers I will be sending as well. For overnights, since Tiernan is a very heavy wetter I have a hemp insert and doubler that go in the diapers and I add an extra cover over top.

My reccomendation to you is not to simply go with Mother Ease diapers just because you know someone who can get you a deal. Go check out Peekaboo Bottoms and talk to the owner. Buy a couple Kushies and try them out. Or check out the diaper service. I hope this helps. If you have any questions please message me back and I'd be happy to help some more. If not well, I tried.

Good luck with cloth!
